Thank you all for your well wishes and support, you cant know what it means to me!
Yes, I do have a boyfriend, we've been together for almost two years- we met a year or so into my exhusband and I's seperation while the divorce was just starting to get nasty. He's been an incredible help and support and has always been really good about the rescue and putting up with my need to bring in .. everything LOL
This actually gets to open a new chapter, since the three of us (Him, his 4 year old daughter, and I) are going to move in together for the first time. Along with the macaws, Whiskey, Cisco, Annie and the two cats, its going to be quite the herd. I am hoping that this will give me a chance to go back to vet school.
We are doing pretty good on moving the puppies out- I have had all my volunteers up and doing home checks instead of just me, so we are approving applications a lot faster. That and halfing the adoption fee has allowed us to move 6 out this weekend. I am taking 35 to the vet on Wednesday and once they are cleared I have several leaving that night as well. I have spent all weekend calling foster homes and begging them to take on just one or two more. With the recent flood and this new hurricane heading straight for us (hanna) I haven't had a lot of luck!
Right now we still need to find foster homes for:
6 golden retriever mix puppies (4 months old)
1 terrier/GSD mix (14 weeks)
1 Australian Shep Mix (4 months)
1 pit/lab Mix (9 weeks)
3 boxer mixes (8 weeks)
1 chow (3 years)
1 beagle/sumthin mix (5 years?)
2 maltepoos
But we are moving forward!
Thank you all for your kind words and prayers. Its going to be a shock to totally shift my life from one direction to another, and I can't imagine not going to animal control twice a week to save what I can, but I am going to sign us all up for volunteering with our sister organization and maybe we can foster every now and then too.
I will keep you all posted- and if any of you are looking for a dog, please let me know!
